Barristers at Radcliffe Chambers are frequently instructed in a range of complex pensions disputes, such as professional negligence claims, regulatory proceedings and claims involving defects in scheme documentation. Keith Rowley KC is well-regarded for his experience in high profile cases, while Elizabeth Ovey is acting in R. (The Guinness Partnership Ltd) v Cheshire West and Chester Council, which concerns the pension’s surplus and raises questions of the construction of regulation 64. Henry Day and Wendy Mathers were instructed in Nationwide Pension Fund Trustee Ltd v Amos, a part 8 claim for a Beddoe order allowing the trustee to pursue an appeal against HMRC’s decision regarding the recoverability by the trustee of input VAT amounting to £4m worth of costs incurred in relation to the fund’s administration.
